Cons being absolutely batshit crazy and condescending and wondering why nobody wants to treat them with respect
"As for your assertion that I'm condescending, I'm sorry for whatever I said that came across that way. I am praying for you and everyone else in this thread, that we may all come to be one in Christ."
bit of a cheeky cunt there then arent ya. i almost respect it lol
Traditional values like what? Be specific. I bet many of us would disagree that those values are worth preserving.
Can you cite any examples of physical violence committed by "the left" and what specific political objective those incidents achieved?
It's ironic that you act like the other side is unreasonable when you start with the assumption that "the left" is inherently unreasonable and impossible to have a dialogue with. You aren't leaving any room for conversation. I am willing to listen to your arguments, but we also need to be able to "agree to disagree" without dehumanizing each other.
What has "the left" "violently destroyed" that you "hold dear"?
No really, go ahead, have a rant. We will love it I promise.
How odd to be so vocal about being right and then refuse to elaborate when people are earnestly and respectfully asking for your opinion. Are you secretly ashamed to preach what you actually believe?
@10A
Nope. I want you to answer it. I'll read it. I'll refute it.
I won't convince you that your God isn't real. Your heels are dug in and I respect your convictions.
But there is obvious room for you to learn and grow because no one cares that you're gay for Jesus. We care that you are weaponized stupidity holding our country and the world back with your regressive world view.

You regularly ‘communicate’ with a man that has been dead for over 2000 years by talking to your ceiling, because you believe that (despite being dead) he has magical powers.
And then go around calling everyone else “crazy”.
And dead people all over Jerusalem ‘rose from their graves and wandered around’… yeah.. sure they did bud. Whatever you say.
These are Stories. Not facts, stories. Stories written for children, about magical wizards.
You are the literal equivalent of the kid that -actually- believes in Santa Claus and can’t stop telling everyone around him that he’s the smart one who is going to get all the presents.
Dude, in the comment just prior to that one, you just used the bible as a source of evidence to prove to us all that the bible is true. I have absolutely no doubts about who you think you are.
Since you seem to love proselytising to others I’m going to reverse UNO you dude.
Try reading: ‘The Demon Haunted World’ by Carl Sagan, or ‘The God Delusion’ by Richard Dawkins.
Surely someone so confident in your faith as you can stand up to one little book can’t you? What do you have to lose but the ability to learn and grow?
Why would an all-knowing, all-powerful, all-loving deity create a universe with pointless suffering? Why do infants get cancer?
Why do terrible diseases like shingles and smallpox exist and why did it take humans to eradicate them? Do you think humanity was acting immorally when they created vaccines to combat these deadly viruses? Surely we were working contrary to god's will and that is a sin, right?
Can’t ever be wrong if you never ask nor answer any questions eh?
